The practices of other-initiation of repair provide speakers with a set of solutions to one of the most basic problems in conversation: troubles of speaking, hearing, and understanding. Based on a collection of 227 cases systematically identified in a corpus of English conversation, this article describes the formats and practices of other-initiations of repair attested in the corpus and reports their quantitative distribution. In addition to straight other-initiations of repair, the identification of all possible cases also yielded a substantial proportion in which speakers use other-initiations to perform other actions, including non-serious actions, such as jokes and teases, preliminaries to dispreferred responses, and displays of surprise and disbelief. A distinction is made between otherinitiations that perform additional actions concurrently and those that formally resemble straight other-initiations but analyzably do not initiate repair as an action.

This paper deals with indicators of argumentation in spoken language interaction, i.e. it investigates linguistic and other means used to design an utterance to be recognized by recipients as having an argumentative function. The paper combines elements of the theory of argumentation and conversation analysis, and it is based on data from Czech news interviews with two interviewees. In particular, the study focuses on the linguistic form of argumentation, its sequential position in interaction and its propositional content. The analysis reveals that the sequential position of argumentation (interactional context) is a factor more important for its identification than the linguistic form, but that the most important factor is represented by its propositional content, i.e. argumentation is predominantly content-defined.
